Foreword 

The purpose of this book is to pre- 
serve and place in the hands of the 
people the names and records of those 
men from Nottoway County, Vir- 
ginia, who were actively engaged in 
the prosecution of the war with Ger- 
many. It is not a history, but I sin- 
cerely hope that the data herein con- 
tained will facilitate to some extent 
the work of a future historian of the 
county.

Sketch of War Work 



OF 



Nottoway County, Va., Chapter A. R. C. 



C. O. TTJTTLE 



In telling the story of the World War the historian 
has some very delightful duties. War in itself is a ter- 
rible thing, but its exigencies reveal the spirit and char- 
acter of the people. The heart of our folks was shown 
through the work of the Red Cross. The achievements 
of this organization constitute indisputable proof of the 
growing sympathy and developing brotherhood among 
us. While no one can recount all the self-denial, labor 
or results of the many who participated in this work, we 
venture to outline some things that were done in Notto- 
way County, Virginia. 

The growing desire to minister to the comfort of the 
American soldier and relieve the suffering of war first 
took definite shape in a mass meeting at Nottoway 
Court House July 30, 1917. There it was decided to 
organize a chapter of the Red Cross, and the petition 
that was circulated received the signature of such citi- 
zens as J .A. Hardy, H. H. Seay, H. L. Williams, 
J. D. Crawley, L. S. Epes, R. F. Dillard, J. M. Hurt, 
H. H. Watson, G. R. Brittenham, and C. O. Tuttle. 
Headquarters for the chapter was fixed at Blackstone, 
and the permanent officers chosen were : 

Rev. C. O. Tuttle, of Blackstone, Chairman. 

Hon. H. H. Watson, of Crewe, Vice-Chairman. 

Mr. J. P. Agnew, of Burkeville, Treasurer. 

Mr. G. R. Brittenham, of Crewe, Secretary. 

These persons were made the nucleus of the Execu- 
tive Committee and empowered to complete the organi- 



6 The Final Roster 

zation. Due recognition of the forming of the Notto- 
way County, Virginia, chapter to have jurisdiction in 
Nottoway County, Virginia, was promptly received 
from Eliot Wadsworth at the National Headquarters 
in Washington, D. C, and then Mrs. R. F. Dillard, of 
Blackstone, was made Chairman of the Military Relief, 
and Mr. W. P. Bostick, of Burkeville, was put in charge 
of Home Service. Sometime later the Junior Red 
Cross was authorized, and a number of members se- 
cured, but this was never developed. When Hon. L. S. 
Epes was chosen Secretary to fill the vacancy created 
by the removal of Mr. G. R. Brittenham from the 
county, and Mr. C. B. Lane, of Crewe, had been made 
Chairman of the Second War Fund Drive, the chapter 
offices were filled as they remained substantially for 
the period of the war. 

Hardly had the County Chapter been organized when 
petitions were received to establish branches at Black- 
stone, Crewe and Burkeville. These petitions were 
honored and the following persons served in the posi- 
tions indicated :

The Burkeville Branch, as indeed the entire chapter, 
sustained a great loss in the death of Mrs. J. P. Agnew, 
who rendered most efficient service in her own home 
town and contributed not a little to the success of the 
Red Cross work in the county. 



Nottoway County, Va. 9 

For sometime a workroom was maintained in the base- 
ment of the Baptist Church, where the ladies of the town 
gathered regularly to sew and knit. In other places 
homes were opened for this purpose, while a great deal 
was done by individuals as time and circumstances per- 
mitted. Enough can not be said in praise of the labors 
of the ladies of the entire county. They eagerly took 
the raw materials and worked them up into comforts for 
the soldiers, and into every stitch they breathed a prayer 
that the wearer of that garment might be spared all 
needless suffering and help protect the homes, liberties 
and ideals of Christian democracy. 

Here is one shipment. 



The total amount of work done and the character of 
the same can be seen from the report submitted by the 
very efficient Chairman, Mrs. R. F. Dillard, which is 
as follows:

10 The Finae Roster 

A very conservative value to the above was $4,164.55. 

In addition to the above, clothing for the relief of 
suffering Belgians was collected both in the spring and 
fall of 1918 and the total shipments amounted to 1,480 
pounds for Burkeville, 385 for Crewe, and 1,170 pounds 
for Blackstone and auxiliaries. The latter also con- 
tributed $34.50 in money to this object. 

The financial exhibit of the chapter from the time 
of organization to the close of the fiscal year, June 30, 
1919, speaks well for the liberality of our people and 
their interest in Red Cross work. Here is a sum- 
marized report from Mr. J. P. Agnew, Treasurer: 

Receipts for: 

Second war fund drive $7,360.42 

Annual membership dues 1,857.50 

Magazine membership dues 82.00 

Military relief 3,080.47 

Contributions, etc. 4,226.44 

Expenses 209.15 

As the amounts paid for Military Relief came out of 
the General Fund, and to the General Fund went all 
the contributions, one-half the annual dues and a por- 
tion of the magazine membership dues, the total raised 
for all purposes amounted to $9,726.27. Even this does 
not show the whole cash contributions, as might be in- 
ferred from the small expense items. The officers and 
helpers seldom took account of the price they paid for 
the privilege of serving, and churches, public buildings 
and automobiles were generously loaned to help the 
cause. 

While no detailed report of the Committee on Home 
Service is available, Mr. W. P. Bostick, Mr. J. W. Nash 
and Mrs. C. O. Burton rendered valuable aid. Govern- 
ment allotments were secured, home conditions investi- 
gated and reported, and local soldiers or others passing 
through were given needed help. 



Nottoway County, Va. 11 

A pleasant duty of the Red Cross Chapter was the 
transmission of a large number of Christmas boxes to 
men at the front. These were assembled and shipped 
from the Branch headquarters before the holidays. 

While the largest enrollment of the chapter may have 
been 851 members, the public generally took a great in- 
terest in its activities, and although local conditions ren- 
dered some classes of service either unnecessary or im- 
practicable, the results are a credit to the war work of 
the community. It is to be hoped that an equal spirit 
of good-will and helpfulness will be carried into the 
peace program to secure in fact those things for which 
both soldiers and civilians toiled and suffered so much. 



Woman's Service League 
of Nottoway County, Va. 

MRS. W. A. LAND 

The Woman's Service League was the first patriotic 
organization formed in the county. Mrs. W. A. Land, 
of Blackstone, was appointed County Chairman by the 
State President, Mrs. W. W. Sale, of Richmond, and 
went at once to work to organize the county. A large 
membership was soon secured, with auxiliary or sub- 
sidiary organizations in three places in the county. As- 
sistance was also freely rendered in other sections of the 
county, fine work resulting with beneficial results. There 
was never any lack of hearty cooperation among those 
interested in the success of the undertaking. 

Aside from the direct work done by the league, much 
assistance was rendered the Red Cross through the 
league organization. Several boxes of sheets, pillow 
cases, tray cloths, handkerchiefs, napkins, sweaters, 
wristlets and mufflers were also turned over to the Red 
Cross. Barrels of canned goods were sent to the camps. 

As a direct contribution from the league, every soldier 
boy was presented with a "comfort kit" upon his being 
called into the service, or sent to him in camp. These 
kits contained buttons, thread, cigarettes, tobacco, 
chewing-gum and other accessories for the boys' 
comfort. 

In all our work we had the hearty cooperation of the 
local chapter of the United Daughters of the Con- 
federacy, a strong organization of which was already 
in existence here.

The Nottoway Soldiers' Comfort 
League 

MES. R. F. DILLARD 

When the young men of the county joined the army, 
it seemed natural that the ladies should find pleasure 
in busying their hands to make something for their com- 
fort and to send as a message from home. 

The Nottoway Soldiers' Comfort League was or- 
ganized at the home of Mrs. R. F. Dillard on October 
29, 1917, with the following young ladies as charter 
members : 

Miss Lucy B. Adams Miss Josie Jones 

Miss Frances Campbell Miss Jessie Jones 

Miss Mary Stokes Miss Ada Blanche Perkins 

Miss Mary Lee McNair Miss Elizabeth Epes 

Miss Evelyn Tucker Miss Mattie Epes 

Miss Virginia Robertson 

The plan of the organization was to supplement the 
work of the American Red Cross by supplying each 
of the soldiers from the county with one or more 
sweaters, pairs of wristlets, etc.

MAKE A NAME FOR YOURSELF 



T^HE young man who cannot 
1 SAVE MONEY is doomed 

to go through life unknown and 

unsuccessful. 

The man who does save shows 
that he is boss of himself, and 
ready to assume other responsi- 
bilities that may come to him. 

Saving means more than hav- 
ing just so much money ; it 
means building character, winning 
the respect of others and being 
able to grasp opportunity when 
it comes. It means making a 
a name for yourself. 

Start now. We'll tell you how.

HOW YOU CAN MAKE MONEY 

Not by keeping it in your house, for you are in danger of losing it 
by thieves. If you do not lose it in this way, still you are losing 
money, because it is earning you nothing. 

You can save it by depositing it with The Bank of Crewe, and 
it will work for you night and day, earning interest every hour. The 
interest will also earn interest 

It is safe there ; it is working for you ; and you can get it out at 
frequent intervals, or, when the sum grows large enough, we will T 
be pleased to help you invest it in something safe and sound. X

I The RECORD of the 

FIRST NATIONAL BANK 

of CREWE in the World War. 

This bank furnished two of its employees, Mr. 
Claude Mastin Jones and Mr. Laurent G. Tucker, 
who enlisted for service in the years 1917-18, leav- 
ing the entire work for its diminished force. This 
bank went forward during this trying period of our 
history and steadily increased its business and con- 
tributed liberally to every campaign for Liberty 
Loans. The record of this bank in the Liberty 
Loan Campaigns is as follows: 





Apportionment : 


Amount Subscribed : 


FIRST LOAN 




$35,800.00 


SECOND LOAN: 


$38,640.00 


38,640.00 


THIRD LOAN: 


19,600.00 


70,500.00 


FOURTH LOAN : 


42,000.00 


90,000.00 


VICTORY LOAN : 


39,500.00 


97,000.00 



♦ 



// will be seen from the above figures that the 
First National Bank of Crewe, raised $331,000.00, 
besides helping in the War Savings Campaign and 
furnishing upward of $300,000.00 on United States 
short-term notes. We invite an examination of our 
record and of our steady increase in business. Our 
assets total nearly a half million dollars. 

The First National Bank of Crewe, number 
among its customers many enterprising farmers in 
this section of Virginia and this bank is ever ready 
to encourage thrift among its farmers and to lend its 
help to them in every possible way. Its purpose is 
to lend its best help towards developing its town and 
the country sections.
